That will configure 27 $HELM\_HOME, but not attempt to connect to a remote cluster and install the Tiller 28 deployment. 29 30 .PP 31 When installing Tiller, 'helm init' will attempt to install the latest released 32 version. You can specify an alternative image with '\-\-tiller\-image'. For those 33 frequently working on the latest code, the flag '\-\-canary\-image' will install 34 the latest pre\-release version of Tiller (e.g. the HEAD commit in the GitHub 35 repository on the master branch). 36 37 .PP 38 To dump a manifest containing the Tiller deployment YAML, combine the 39 '\-\-dry\-run' and '\-\-debug' flags. 40 41 42 .SH OPTIONS 43 .PP 44 \fB\-\-canary\-image\fP[=false] 45 use the canary tiller image 46 47 .PP 48 \fB\-c\fP, \fB\-\-client\-only\fP[=false] 49 if set does not install tiller 50 51 .PP 52 \fB\-\-dry\-run\fP[=false] 53 do not install local or remote 54 55 .PP 56 \fB\-i\fP, \fB\-\-tiller\-image\fP="" 57 override tiller image 58 59 .PP 60 \fB\-\-upgrade\fP[=false] 61 upgrade if tiller is already installed 62 63 64 .SH OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 65 .PP 66 \fB\-\-debug\fP[=false] 67 enable verbose output 68 69 .PP 70 \fB\-\-home\fP="~/.helm" 71 location of your Helm config.
